7 Good Minutes: Extra - The "Worst-Day" Sizing Test, For New Habits

7 Good Minutes: Extra - The "Worst-Day" Sizing Test, For New Habits

If a habit only works on your best days, it isn't built to last. Today's Extra gives you a quick way to size any habit so it fits your worst ones instead.

Pick a habit you want, or one you've already dropped. Picture your actual worst realistic weekday — not a disaster, just an ordinary rough one. Then shrink the habit down to the smallest version you could still do on that exact day, and attach it to something that already happens without fail, like the coffee maker clicking on or sitting down on the bed at night.

For the next week, only that tiny version counts as a win. It's not lowering your standards — it's finally measuring the one thing that predicts whether a habit lasts.
